my colleague and i decided to hit the Borough Market today and managed to miss being in the middle of chaos by minutes.

we were crossing the Jubilee Bridge by the London Eye when an absurd number of police were seen across the way on the Westminster Bridge…..helicopters, emergency vehicles, the works.  since we work on Market St. in SF and sirens are an everyday occurrence, we continued on our way to the market, where we enjoyed a delicious grilled cheese and hot apple cider.

it wasn’t until later we saw the report of the tragic events at Parliament. scary to think had we been one bridge over things could have turned out very different for us this afternoon.

my heart goes out to all those families affected.
